Lingnan Heyuan is situated in Beijiao Town, Shunde District, Foshan City, and serves as a tourist attraction and garden museum that exhibits the art of Lingnan gardens and carries forward the excellent culture of Guangdong. The design of Heyuan incorporates four stages of Lingnan garden design from the Ming and Qing Dynasties to the early Republic of China, creating four distinctive landscapes: the northern mountains and southern waters, a collection of architecture, pavilions and water towns, and stacked stone flower mountains.


These are highlighted by six major scenic spots: ‘Together in Harmony’, ‘Cantonese Charm’, ‘Moon and Pine Wind’, ‘Cloudy Mountain Lodge’, ‘Taihe Academy’, and ‘Diverse Flavors of Peace’, which together unfold a picture of Lingnan’s countryside life with mountains, markets, and homes.


Operational Hours: Heyuan is open from 09:00 to 17:30 on New Year’s Day, Spring Festival, Qingming Festival, Labor Day, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, and National Day. It is also open from Tuesday to Sunday, 09:00 to 17:30, throughout the year from January 1st to December 31st, and closed on Mondays.
